The Door lyrics

I took a page out your, favourite book
You sold me lies just by the, way you look
Taught me a language that I, never speak
Baby that ain't for me
That, that ain't for me
I dug my grave watching, the way you move
You took me higher, than I ever flew
Too many times, gave you a second chance
Baby I'm just a man
I'm, I'm just a man
No, not thinking about you late night
Don't, go running around with your friends now
Picking up pieces of my soul off up the floor
I said I'd die for you baby
But I can't take this pain no more
I thought I was willing
But tonight I save my life
When I showed you the door
I don't want to lose you baby
But I can't take this game no more
I thought it'd kill me
But tonight I saved my life
When I showed you the door
You never thought this day
Would ever come
But I looked you in the eyes
And pulled the rug
You tried to take away my sanity
Baby that ain't for me
That, that ain't for me
Oh No, not thinking about you late night
Don't, go running around with your friends now
I'm picking up pieces of my soul from out the floor
I said I'd die for you baby
But I can't take this pain no more
I thought I was willing
But tonight I saved my life
When I showed you the door
I don't want to lose you baby
But I can't play this game no more
I thought it'd kill me
But tonight I saved my life
When I showed you the door
When I showed you the door
When I showed you the door
But tonight I saved my life
I said I'd die for you baby
But I can't take this pain no more
I thought I was willing
But tonight I saved my life
When I showed you the door
I don't want to lose you baby (I don't want to lose you baby)
But I can't take this game no more
I thought it'd kill me (I thought it'd kill me)
But tonight I saved my life
When I showed you the door
